Ooh Arrr ...

Just a short newsflash from OOFT towers ... We've noticed a couple of white-label 12"s of some of the Versionitis edits kicking about. They are not connected to us - this was a limited CD release only and we have no link to these in case you wondered ...

Saw the Micheal Jackson/
Barry White edits in a store
in Japan. What other tunes
got pressed to wax?

Just to echo Graeme's thoughts on the original post, it's a bit grating that someone has decided to cash in on this by what looks like buying a copy of the LESS010 CD then ripping tracks off it to vinyl.
Although we have no legal (or moral for the matter) right to counter this it still feels like someone has decided to "shit on their neighbours doorstep" by doing white label pressings. LESS releases were always meant to be for the diggers, with a quirky CD-only format, interesting packaging and of course very limited runs.
We can only apologise to everyone who bought the CD thinking that it was going to be the only way to get the songs, and especially those who picked up the final copies for big money on Juno after it had been sold on from other distributors.
Would be interesting to find out who's behind them!
